Alright, basically I'm looking for a computer that can play modern games, so a decent computer I'd say (not necessarily extreme). I know many people here love suggesting to people to build there own computer (and I completely agree), it's just based on my circumstances I can't so I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't bring that up. :laughing:
Anyway, I've checked ibuypower and cyberpowerpc in search of a good custom computer, but I heard they aren't exactly very reliable in producing the correct parts and that the power supplies are crappy (along with any other non listed part).
So from here I decided I'd spend a one or two more hundred dollars to still buy a decently good PC but also quality assured from Dell, checking out their XPS models, and I'd like for you guys to see what I've built and tell me if it can smoothly handle games and what not (WoW, counter strike source or any other steam games, etc).
IN SHORT: How's this computer (Graphic card good?)
